Games: Episode 22 - The Cursed Episode

It's games time again! David Pealing's audio unfortunately didn't record so we've had to edit this down to sound like a 3 man show with Clive, James Flux and Alex Wain (hence the slightly shorter running time). There's still plenty of content though with a couple of games reviewed and plenty of E3 talk. It's due to trying to recover Dave's audio that this show is coming to you late. We'll be back to a weekly schedule after this! Here's a full list of what's discussed:

Unravel (PS4)
Nintendo E3 Spotlight rundown by Clive
XBox E3 rundown by Flux
Trials: Fusion (PS4)
